Setup developer tool

Master the secrets of race car Setup Fu with straight-up questions and answers using the Race2Play Setup Developer Tool!

This interactive program steps the user through the major areas of race car setup and tuning, asking simple questions about the telemetry readings and behavior of the car under specific race conditions. "How is the car reacting at initial turn-in?" "How does the car feel from mid-corner to corner-exit when on the throttle?" "What type of track are you preparing for?"

Choosing from a menu of possible responses to the questions ("Sluggish turn-in", "Oversteer", "Long sweeping corners"), the user describes the car and the program calculates possible setup changes accordingly. Questions asked. Questions answered.

The Race2Play Setup Developer Tool covers the following areas of race car setup and tuning:

• Springs and antiroll bars
• Tire pressures and camber
• Caster and toe
• Gearing
• Differential
• Weight distribution
• Dampers
• Aerodynamics

The advice and interactive program is the product of Race2Play Chief Setup Engineer Tim McArthur's two decades of research in simulated auto racing. The information offered therein is relevant not only to all racing sims, but real world applications as well.

The program's complete and full functionality is unlocked for supporting members of Race2Play. Guest members unlock a limited set of the functionality.
